Chapter 4: Old Home, New Promises, and A New Mission
O.O.O
"He is not a lover who does not love forever." – Euripides
O.O.O
"Princess Aphrodite," Kunzite called up as he leaned against the tree, "Do you mind if I ask you something that has been troubling me?"
"By all means," Sailor Venus replied from above. The pair had been assigned on chaperone duty for Prince Endymion and Princess Serenity. They were willing to give the young couple some space as they had enjoyed a picnic together, but this meant they had to occupy their time waiting around for them to finish. They often found each other's company helped. "But please, feel free to just address me as Sailor Venus or simply Venus while on duty. My royal title means nothing when I'm serving as a guard."
"Very well," Kunzite agreed as he kept his eyes on his task. Though he enjoyed talking with Sailor Venus, he often would enjoy whittling while on duty. "My Prince informed me you personally requested I be the one to join you today on chaperone duty. May I ask why?"
Sailor Venus paused for a moment before she continued, debating whether she should be honest or not. "Truthfully? You don't make assumptions about me even though I'm from Venus. You'd be surprised how many believe the rumors. A representative from Neptune asked if it was true Venusians greeted others with oral sex. He was already adjusting his pants before I had given him a proper answer."
"Huh," Kunzite grunted in disgust. "Allow me to apologize on behalf of my gender."
"Really?" Venus wondered, arching her eyebrow at Kunzite's answer. "Some may say such an apology would make you weak."
"Those who have not had to apologize for the actions of others who share their gender, race, or religion, live their life with rose-colored glasses," Kunzite replied as he blew the shavings off the piece of wood he was whittling. "The reason I don't like to make assumptions is that I come from a culture many criticize without taking the time to explore."
Sailor Venus smiled as she played with a few strands of her hair and stared down at the handsome Knight. "Tell me about your culture."
"Very well," Kunzite acknowledged, not stopping for wood crafting. "I was born the son of the Sultan, born into royalty and decadence. However, my father kept a harem. My mother was sickly and died early in my life. One of the other wives in his harem, who was close with my mother, stepped in to care and raise me. Yet, instead of feeling grateful for the affection I was given, my father became angry at the caregiver and began to show her less favor."
Kunzite continued. "I saw how my father treated women and I did not like it. He acted as if they were interchangeable and existed solely for his pleasure. I realized I could not live such a life. When the Kingdom of Elysium asked for a representative to become the guardian of Prince Endymion, I gladly volunteered."
"Strange," Sailor Venus mused with a smile. The views of the leader of the Shitennou were foreign but not unwelcome. "Most men spend their entire lives wishing they could be showered with the attention of many women."
"Perhaps but I feel if you truly devote yourself to another person, you'll discover even more about yourself and them," Kunzite proposed, smoothing parts of his wooden figure. "Or am I talking nonsense?"
"Not at all," Sailor Venus replied, shaking her head. "My mother, the previous Sailor Venus, told me we must fight for all kinds of different love. Whether that be love between a man and a woman, ones of the same sex, and even those who never desire physical love. It is not our place to pass judgment but to instead ensure love survives no matter how hate festers in the world."
"Then, if I'm not being too bold," Kunzite stopped his wood carving and looked up at the Sailor Senshi. She could not help but see a vulnerable yet wanting look in his eyes. "What type of relationship do you desire?"
"One where…," Sailor Venus began, turning her gaze away from Kunzite, looking out towards where the Prince and Princess were enjoying their lunch. For some reason gazing upon the night sky from Earth made her cheeks grow warm. "My mate would be strong enough to fight by my side. At the same time, our love would make us forget about the battlefield when we were alone."
"If possible I'd love to be that person," Kunzite whispered so softly Venus didn't hear him. Instead, he turned his own attention towards the young couple. "Us being here is a little pointless, don't you think?"
"I do," Venus agreed, as she watched Endymion stroke Serenity's cheek softly. "Our mission to keep them from engaging in this forbidden love is a fool's errand. I saw, with my ability as Sailor Venus, that the pair were soulmates the moment they were close together. All it takes is for the soulmates to be in proximity to each other and the red string of destiny becomes visible to me."
"Can you see everyone's soulmate?" Kunzite asked, his heart tightened at the idea she could be his true love.
"Everyone's but my own," Venus sighed as she stopped looking at the couple. "The holder of the Guardian of Venus isn't allowed to know who her soulmate is. She must find it as part of the journey as a warrior."
"Well, perhaps you will find them...somewhere down the line," Kunzite commented as he finished his project. He tossed the little figurine up to the Sailor Senshi. "Here take this with you."
"T-thank you," Sailor Venus replied as she admired the small object. It was of an animal Venus had never seen before. "What is it?"
"A fox. Specifically, a female fox called a vixen," Kunzite explained as he sheathed his knife. "They are infamous for being cunning, beautiful, and elusive creatures. Much like you, Lady Venus."
Before she could reply, Kunzite walked off and tended to the horses that had brought them. Venus smiled as she looked from the Knight to the figurine. She hoped she could have moments alone with Kunzite.
O.O.O
1 year and 2 months ago...
Shinn did his best to keep both hands on the wheel and be mindful of traffic. Unfortunately, Minako was not making it easy to concentrate on his task. She had recovered from her post-orgasm haze and had gone to work serving her Alpha. She leaned over the middle console and began rubbing and pawing at Shinn's crotch. It was obvious she was trying to free his cock but was fumbling as she worked to undo his pants. A low moan of disappointment escaped her lips as she settled on giving his manhood affectionate squeezes through the material of his clothing.
"Alpha, please," Minako whined her head nuzzling Shinn's stomach. "I need your knot! It's the only thing I can think of!"
"Shh," Shinn whispered, taking a hand off the wheel to stroke Minako's hair. "Let me get you home and I'll keep you safe for your entire heat."
"You promise?" Minako asked, her legs rubbing together at the thought of Shinn helping her.
Looking away from the road for a second, Shinn noticed a large spot of dampness had formed in the old pair of sweatpants Minako was wearing. "I promise."
Shinn was finally willing to shower his beloved with affection. He had stored up more than enough sick leave and vacation time at work that a few days off wouldn't be a problem. "I'll make sure you are cared for."
Minako purred and continued to rub against Shinn's muscular body. Shinn kept one hand on the wheel and the other hand caressing Minako's hair.
The ride didn't last long and the pair arrived back at the house. After parking the car, Shinn got out, went to the other side, and lifted Minako out of the passenger side. He carried her to the bedroom like a bride and gently placed her on the bed.
"You wait there," Shinn instructed as he looked down at the young woman "I'm going to get some sports drinks from the fridge so…"
Shinn was unable to finish his sentence. As he turned to leave the room, Minako grabbed him by the arm and pulled him back to the bed. Before he could react, Minako straddled him and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"No Alpha! Don't leave me! Minako begged in a cute whimper. She rubbed her chest in Shinn's face. "Omega is lonely."
Shinn wanted to correct her but everything Minako was doing felt too good. Her arms around his neck, her ample chest in his face, and the sensation of her grinding on his crotch was overwhelming. IT was causing a rut to form for the first time in recent memory.
"Very well little Vixen," Shinn commented as he pulled away from Minako enough to remove her shirt. The hard nipples on her chest were sticking out, practically begging for attention. "I'll gladly take care of you."
Since Natsuki's passing, Shinn had cursed himself to live the life of a lonely Alpha who mourned the loss of his mate. It was an extremely rare occurrence in society but it did happen. In Shinn's view, he had the perfect Omega, and trying to look for anyone even half as wonderful was a fool's effort.
Instead, he had taken enough suppressants to ensure he didn't experience a fully potent rut in almost two decades. Now being alone with Minako, his soulmate, he could feel the most dynamic rut he had experienced building inside. It frightened him. He knew Minako had insisted she could take whatever he could dish out, but her body was still very nubile.
With Natsuki, the pair had infamously had to pay a 200,000 yen bill for the damage to a hotel room with their lovemaking. It was one of the crowning achievements in their sex life. Part of him wanted to give in and become the unstrained near savage Alpha he had been previously but he needed to keep himself in check and ensure Minako's first heat with an Alpha was pleasant and enjoyable. He leaned forward and began to lick one of her hard nipples. Her skin had a faint hint of the smells she radiated from her mating gland. Like pineapple, vanilla, and the breeze of a summer day. Intoxicating to the taste and he was just getting started.
"Hmmm," Minako cooed, as she ran her fingers around Shinn's neck and kept him focused on caressing her chest with his mouth. Alternating between licking, sucking, and nibbling one nipple before giving a similar treatment to the other. "Lick me all over Alpha! Mark me with your kisses."
"I'll do more than that," Shinn proclaimed, with a powerful snarl that caused goosebumps to form on Minako's body. He moved his head up to the spot between her shoulder and where the collar was on her neck and Shinn maneuvered his head to get as close to her mating gland as possible before sinking his teeth into the soft piece of flesh.
The high-pitched cry of pleasure that escaped Minako's lips filled the room and alerted Shinn to the idea she was in a state of Euphoria. This was the signal to Shinn he was succeeding in his mission of honoring his beloved Omega.
"You are overdressed," Shinn commented as he looked at Minako with hungry eyes. Before she could respond, Shinn had picked her up, turned around, and playfully threw her on the bed. Minako giggled as she bounced against the mattress and watched as Shinn removed his shirt. To help compensate and distract his need for physical contact, he kept a strict exercise schedule. With his shirt off Minako got a view of his muscular pecs and six-pack abs. It made Minako's mouth water at the sight.
Shinn removed Minako's slick-covered panties and stared down at her breathtaking flower. Shinn licked his lips, the sight of Minako's womanhood caused his Alpha to take over. Omega is ready and needs knot.
"So beautiful," Shinn groaned, his rut taking control of his actions. He buried his face between Minako's thighs and tasted her petals from the bottom to the very top with one long lick. He savored her nectar, licking his lips, making sure he got every drop. "Delicious."
"Knot me!" Minako begged as her nails dug into the sheets, her body tensing with a sweet mixture of anticipation and pleasure. She had the memories from her soul of experiencing something similar but her body was still new to it all. She was losing herself more and more to her Omega with every act Shinn performed. "Please Alpha. I need your knot."
"Patience," Shinn insisted as he lowered his face to Minako's core. He could feel his cock was hard and throbbing with a desire to claim his Omega but her taste was addicting and he needed more of it. He began to feast on her slick coated flower, licking up the nectar and kissing her sensitive clit. As her sweet spot hardened, Shinn caught it with his front teeth and applied just the slightest amount of pressure. The act was more than enough to push Minako over the edge. She orgasmed, her torso arching and her high pitch cry of satisfaction filling the room and making Shinn appreciate how they had soundproofed the bedroom when they first bought the house for moments like this.
"A-alpha," Minako panted, her chest rising and lowering rapidly as she tried to regain her composure. She had experienced another moment of ecstasy but her inner Omega, now fully in control wanted to serve her beloved. "Please. Your knot. I need."
"I know. I need you too, my little vixen," Shinn replied as he wiped his mouth, removing the excess slick from his face. He undid his pants and let his cock spring free.
"It's bigger than I remember," Minako admitted, biting the bottom of her lip in anticipation for what was coming. "Please. Fuck me!"
"Shh," Shinn insisted as he placed a hand near the tip of his cock and the other on her hips for leverage. He moved his own hips forward and placed his tip inside, giving her time to accept the thickness. He slowly inserted himself until half his length was inside. Watching Minako take his cock, a mixture of pain and pleasure on her face as her eyes rolled back in her head was a sight to behold.
"Oh fuck," Shinn commented through clenched teeth. Minako's hot, wet womanhood felt incredible. It gripped him with a sensation so exotic he wanted to memorize it forever but knew there was no possible way to catalog such a heavenly experience. He kept his strokes small, allowing her time to become accommodated to his size. He kept stopping as her lower lips kissed the top of his knot before backing up again.
He wanted to make sure she was prepared before he went all in. "You're so amazing Minako!"
"Alpha...I...I need it!" Minako yelled, taking Shinn by surprise. She moved so fast he barely could react and with the skill of a Sailor Senshi, Minkao rolled her larger lover onto his back. "I need the knot."
"M-Minako…I…," Shinn wanted to protest but he knew it would do no good. Minako's Omega was in full control and she wanted more. Moving her hips like a belly dancer, Minako rode Shinn's erection much faster. The knot started to go deeper and deeper inside until it went from half to being completely inside. Her Alpha's knot deep inside, Minako threw her head back as another orgasm hit her like a wave slamming against rocks in the ocean. "Ahh! Am I a good Omega? I took Alpha's knot!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Shinn complimented her as he stared up at his beloved. He wanted to lean forward and grab one of her nipples in her mouth but pride and admiration kept him on his back. Minako was doing everything in her power to show her devotion and he couldn't get enough of it. He especially loved the position he was in. In all of their incarnations, he had always enjoyed cowgirl as he could get a fantastic view of her breasts bouncing as she rode his cock. Minako, for her part, enjoyed doggie style. Being taken from behind in long powerful strokes, usually on the floor.
Though Alpha and Omega relationships were stereotyped with doggie-style as the main position, Shinn and Natsuki had explored many positions, hoping to experience all they could with their lovemaking. Now with Minako Shinn would gladly re-explore them all.
"It feels amazing Alpha! Your knot is so big!" Minako cried in joy as she continued to ride Shinn's cock. Her inner Omega cheered her on with each movement of her hip. Alpha is pleased! Show gland! Let him mark us! Her hands flew to her neck and began undoing the choker's clasp.
"No!" Shinn roared, the last bit of his rational brain taking over and guiding him. He knew his rut was too great and he wanted nothing more than to mate and claim her. The sight of her mating gland would be too much in the moment and she was still too young to be mated.
Instead, he tapped into the dominant side of being an Alpha, grabbed Minako by the wrists, and rolled on top of her. He adjusted and soon one hand held her wrists over his head and the other lifted her leg higher to change directions. "I'll decide when to mate and breed you! But always remember you are mine!"
"Yes! Yes, Alpha!" Minako agreed, unable to form an objection. Her Omega was easily influenced by his firm Alpha tone, to the point a simple statement kept her in line. "Give me your seed! I want it!"
"Mina-chan...my little vixen," Shinn's words became fragmented as he reached his peak and achieved climax with a loud throaty groan. The pleasure was mind-numbing. Between his recent stubborn erections and years of personal attention to satisfy his cravings, raw hot sexy with Minako was like briefly touching heaven. His entire body shook as seed flowed into his Omega's hungry mound.
At the same time, Minako reached her fourth orgasm of the night, driven over the top by the warming sensation of Shinn's cum painting her womb. Her nails dug at his back as she rode the wave of contentment.
"Mina-chan…," Shinn gasped, trying to catch his breath. "I love you."
"I love you too, my Alpha," Minako purred, nuzzling into the crook of his neck. Both sides of Minako's personality (strong Sailor Senshi and the needy Omega) were at peace with where they were. Locked in the loving embrace of someone who would keep them safe, their bodies connected and locked together by Shinn's knot.
O.O.O
The remaining days of Minako's heat were the most pleasant she had experienced since she presented as an Omega. Shinn made sure she was properly fed, cared for, and fucked every time she needed it during the heat. She gathered all the linens in the house and made their bed into a nest perfect for their Alpha and Omega to copulate.
They didn't limit themselves to the bedroom. Instead, Shinn took her in the shower, on the kitchen floor, and even on the coffee table in the living room. The coffee table had been unable to support their weight and brake as Minako bounced on Shinn's lap. The impact as it gave way drove Shinn so deep into Minako she attained orgasm with ease.
On the fourth day, after a session on the couch, Shinn held Minako close from behind, having finished in reverse cowgirl.
"I can smell it Vixen," Shinn commented as he kissed the many bite marks he had created on Minako's back and shoulders. Had it not been for the chocker around her neck, he would have definitely mated her. "Your heat came to an end this morning. What we did a moment ago...that was just you want me to take you."
"I couldn't help it. It feels incredible when you touch me," Minako confessed, her breath still ragged. "I beg of you. Please tell me...that wasn't a one-time thing was it?"
"No, I knew in that hotel room I had two options," Shinn answered, holding her together around the waist. "I chose the one that made sure you would be in my arms. I love you Minako, past, present, and future."
"Mmm," Minako cooed, leaning her body back against Shinn's hard chest. "I love you too Shinn."
"Promise me we'll keep this between us," Shinn suggested, as he touched Minako on the chin and turned his head to look into her eyes. "I mean at least for a while. Approaching your parents about this needs to be handled delicately."
"I get it," Minako agreed as she looked into Shinn's eyes with a smile. "I understand. Especially since I'm still not out of high school yet."
"I know I'm asking a lot," Shinn replied as he gently kissed her on the cheek. "You already have enough on your plate as a Sailor Senshi and trying to become an idol."
"It's fine," Minako insisted, wrapping her own arms around Shinn's and returning the affection. "As long as I can be with you I don't care."
The pair stayed in the afterglow enjoying each other's warmth. When Shinn's knot finally deflated, Minako got off Shinn's lap and went upstairs. She grabbed some of the old clothes she wore as Natsuki and prepared to head home. Once she was dressed, she waited for Shinn to get dressed so he could give her a ride home.
"I'm probably going to also investigate that fake pheromone cologne," Minako admitted as she watched a clothed Shinn come down the stairs. "It could be very dangerous if the wrong person used it."
"Are you sure?" Shinn wondered, worried about where such an investigation would take Minako. "It could be risky."
"I'm the only one who can," Minako stated firmly. WIth her heat over and her Omega satisfied she was once again the brave warrior of Love and Beauty. "I'm a Sailor Senshi and an Omega. I have a duty to try and protect my other Omegas."
"Alright," Shinn reluctantly agreed. Like in many of the other lives he had encountered her before, he knew when Minako got an idea in her head there was no stopping her from acting on it. All he could do was be supportive and helpful when she needed it. "But don't do anything too dangerous. And know I'm here for you my love."
"I know you are," Minako smiled as she wrapped her arms around Shinn's neck and shared a long deep kiss with her soulmate. "And I'm a lucky woman for having you in my life."
O.O.O
This puts us about a third of the way through this story. Yes, there will be 8 more installments of this piece. I have a few more ideas of how I want Shinn and Minako to play with one another. The next one will be in the modern setting instead of a flashback.
Thanks to my crew for betaing my work. Reviews are love and help me keep going.
